I have a particular mp4 file my friend gave to me who said that he couldnt get it working.
Long story short, mpc cant read it, mplayer cant read it, vdub/tmpgenc/other encoders cant read it.
I then used the -v option in mplayer and the atomicparsley -T on the file. This is what it says:
Mplayer -v:
